From 12:01 a.m. PDT on Thursday, April 12, through 11:59 p.m. PDT on Sunday, April 15, Xbox Live Gold members can check out Skyrim Special Edition for free. That includes the base game as well as all the add-ons Dawnguard, Hearthfire, and Dragonborn.

In addition to the free weekend, all Xbox One players will have a chance to pick up Skyrim Special Edition for 50% for a limited time. And for you Xbox Live Gold members, you've got a bit of bonus time to save, as Skyrim Special Edition will be in the Deals with Gold program for 50% off from April 16 through April 23.

Don't forget — if you choose to continue your journey once the Free Play Weekend ends, all your progress and achievements will carry over to your newly purchased game.
